MAINTENANCE
1. The brushes should be checked periodically and worn-out brushes should be replaced. After replacing,
inspect whether the new brushes can move freely in the brush holder. Run the motor for 15 minutes without
load to shape the brushes, so that they are properly aligned with the commutator.
2. Keep the vent passage clear from dirt. Clean off the accumulated dust and oil dirt periodically.
3. During normal operation, if anything happens, the power supply should be cut off at once and the tool
should be checked and repaired.
4. Clean the tool after each use.
CAUTION: Only qualified service personnel should repair the tool.
REPLACING CARBON BRUSHES
1. Using the parts list included, locate the carbon brushes. Remove the brush holder caps with a screwdriver
and inspect the carbon brushes. Replace them when they are worn up to about one third.
2. Take the old brush out and install new brushes. Remove all of the brushes at once. Make sure the brush
slides freely within the brush housing.
3. Run the motor for 15 minutes without load to shape the brushes, so that they are properly aligned with
the commutator.
4. Replace the brush caps. Do not over tighten them.
